I'm Second Also Injured

De Club

Today Meta comes to the party at Siska's invitation, even though this is Eki's girlfriend Siska's party. Meta comes with Saif because Saif forbids him from coming to parties with other people especially Irfan. Though Irfan himself can not come because of the shift work day.

"This is the place?" saif asked as they arrived in front of a club called De Club.

Meta nodded. "This is the club on the invitation card" he said. " Have you been here?"

Saif smiled and nodded. " ever. Two or three times."

When he was a motorcycle boy, he often gathered fellow members, not least in this De Club. " Let's go in". Meta said while pulling Saif's hand.

This party that held Eki girlfriend Siska, just to gather all their friends. This de club belongs to the Eki family.

Meta only sees Ryo, Eca, Lucas sitting on the sofa down, while Irfan and Prima cannot come because they are still working. There are friends on the dance floor.

Meta and Saif sit at a bar table that is not too crowded to enjoy a cocktail.

Meta is looking for Siska who is not yet visible, but Siska knows that Meta has come and approached him.

" Hey, he's handsome" whispered Siska near Meta. "Good catch."

Meta looked towards Siska with slightly bulging eyes and pinched the arm of his friend, afraid that Saif who was sitting next to him heard what Siska had just said.

" catch? Is he a fish?" Meta said with a soft look.

As if unconcerned with Meta's question, Siska continued.

" You're lucky Meta Kirana. If I hadn't had a boyfriend, I'd have taken it from you."

Meta just laughed at the babbling of his friend.

" Oh yes Saif here meet my friend".

Saif extended his hand to Siska.

" Hello, I'm Saif".

" Hey.. I'm Fransisca Vera, commonly called Siska" her hand shook Saif's.

" Siska called my name with my car's Lexus." Saif was a little joking.

" Sorry... Don't take it seriously, but it's a pretty cool call," Siska joked.

" It looks like you're a good friend" Saif told Siska.

" Surely so if no one wants Meta to be friends with me.

I'll introduce Eki to my girlfriend soon." Siska's hand signals Eki to come to her, Eki is on the dance floor.

" Saif this is my girlfriend Eki."

" It's nice to meet you" said Eki.

Saif and Eki shake hands with each other.

" I think I've seen you. Have you ever come here ?" continued Eki.

" Maybe. About five years I've been here, maybe that's what makes you a stranger to seeing me" Saif replied.

"yes too. It's good to be here again."

" I haven't enjoyed the club for a long time either."

" Please enjoy the atmosphere, hopefully the party does not disappoint you. I went there first Saif," said Eki, pointing to the right side of the bar.

While Eki was away, Siska chose to remain seated to accompany Meta.

Lucas and Irfan sit down with two girls who work as SPG cars namely Olivia and Lisa, they are both friends of Eki. Saif was busy with chat on his mobile phone, he told Meta there was a little business. Meta decides to talk to Siska while waiting for the busy Saif. Shortly afterwards Olivia walked up to the bar table and sat down on the empty seat to Saif's left. Since Olivia was still sitting with Ryo and Lucas, Meta actually noticed Olivia looking at the bar. Surely seeing Saif because at the bar table there are only Saif, Meta and Siska. An unexpected situation he now proves his interest in Saif by coming to Saif. An Olivia who can see opportunities to approach guys.

Meta must admit if he feels a bit disappointed because Olivia is completely different from his assumption that could not approach Saif. Olivia, who is now sitting next to Saif, has a beautiful face, brown eyes and long straight black hair. Meta regretfully has to admit that no SPG looks as sexy as Olivia.

"It's not like I'm the only one with thoughts of taking Saif away from you, Meta" Siska said suddenly.

Meta heard Siska speaking, he turned his head quickly towards Saif and saw Olivia who was talking to Saif. Olivia's face was very close to Saif. And Olivia occasionally smiled broadly which seemed to be joking with Saif.

"Olivia... You want another cocktail?. Let me get it for you" said Saif, who offered and pointed at Olivia's empty glass.

" Of course," Olivia replied as she gave a sweet smile to Saif, and made Meta rise in blood.

When Olivia opened her mouth to talk to Saif, Meta immediately knew what Olivia wanted to say. As quick as lightning before Olivia could say anything, Meta interrupted in a loud voice, almost sounding like he was yelling "Saif after you take the cocktail we better meet up with my friends."

Siska who was still sitting just smiled at the words Meta said and could see if this friend was jealous of Olivia.

" Just tell me you don't like Olivia getting close to Saif."

Meta got up from the chair quickly and threw a smile that was no less sweet towards Olivia who replied to him with a friendly smile. That girl can't even dream of getting close to Saif.

Saif follows Meta walking to an empty table.

"It turns out you're very good" Meta commented more sarcastically as they sat on the empty sofa.

"Hm? good how?" saif asked looking confused.

"Why should you get him a drink?" Meta spoke without looking towards Saif. Meta knew that at the moment he did look childish, but he could no longer hold back.

Because Meta felt he did not get an answer, he glanced at Saif who was to his right. And Meta found the figure of the guy next to him looking at him with a smile.

"Why smile all that?" this time Meta looked at Saif then turned his eyes again. He felt Saif was reading his mind like all this time that Saif was doing like a psychic.

" Meta Kirana's... Just look at me?" soft Saif tone.

Meta had no choice but to respond to Saif's words with a slight reluctance to stare at Saif's face.

" You jealous?" saif asked with his smile growing wider.

" No" said Meta instantly. Who is jealous? nothing is so.

Saif gave a small laugh and reached out his hand rubbing Meta's head. Meta's heart was beating irregularly.

" I offered him another drink as an excuse I could go from there," Saif said as he stared at Meta

"Recuredly ?"

Saif nodded.

" You're not interested in Olivia?."

"No."

" A little bit not interested?." Ask the impressed Meta to convince himself.

Saif thought for a moment. " Yes.. Olivia is very beautiful and the girl dreams of the boys" replied Saif.

Meta frowned.

Looking at Meta's reaction, Saif quickly continued his words.

"But no, he's not my type," continued Saif calmly and directed a glance at Meta who was also staring at him.

"You don't have to worry. You know that your skin can quickly wrinkle if you keep wrinkling like that."

Meta only snorted, although not in his heart, happy to hear Saif's explanation. Before Saif went on about the problem of wrinkles and to cover up his embarrassment Meta only muttered indistinctly.

"You know Meta that I already like you and I'm not joking about how I feel about you."

" But a lot of girls like you."

" I just like you, I don't have to pay attention to them. I could have turned to them if you hadn't returned my feelings" Saif joked again.

Meta was pleased that Saif gave a convincing explanation. After yesterday Saif stated that he loves Meta. And it seems from the words of Saif if he also wants certainty from Meta.

Saif invited Meta home because the clock had shown at 23:30 Wib, he knew that Meta was working the morning shift tomorrow.

Meta and Saif look for the whereabouts of Siska and Eki to say goodbye first.

" ey...I want to go home first." said Meta.

" Why rush Meta. The party is still crowded."

" I'm in the morning, so I have to go home now."

" all right. I'm not gonna force."

" Tell Siska if I go home first."

" Okay." answered Eki

"Be careful, Saif, I hope you still want to go to this club." Continue Eki on Saif.

Saif holds Meta's hand towards the exit of the club. The atmosphere of the club is getting crowded even though it is near the early hours of the morning.

The black traces that remained even though had long since passed, made it with someone.
